From personal experience I can say yes lol. I had a lady SA my feet in the middle of a Xmas work party. I'll spare the details but there was plenty of witness' and she gained the nickname toes at work. She ended up quiting not too long afterwords

mention/description of SA
Wild that sexual assault becomes a funny anecdote and not cause for arrest. I remember reading something about how it has to do with women not being seen as having a sexuality and thus being perceived as unable to perform SA or something. I dunno it made sense to me at the time.I've known quite a few sex pest women who never got any consequences from it apart from a snide remark now and then. Kinda fucked tbh. I went to school with two women that did shit that would imprison any man. One of them crawled naked into bed with a guy who had rejected her several times at a house party, and then she tried to initiate sex. He kicked her out of bed and went back to sleep. This got retold (BY HER!) next morning as a funny story.
The other one predated on drunk women, real scumbag behaviour. No one called them out for it. I didn't know how to feel or what to do at the time, everyone else just treated it like it was normal and funny.
This was in a very leftist environment that took sexual transgressions very seriously, by the way. This was just not perceived as a transgression for some reason.
I think its due to two things, the obscene physical power difference between the sexes on avg and the perceived notion of men are always going to consent to sexual relations. Personally, I'm a 6ft 280lbs man with an extensive history in powerlifting and strongman activities and the idea that the avg women could force me into unwanted situations would generally be considered an absurdity
